How Does One Dress to Buy Dragonfruit?, edited by Shannon Young, is the first collection to explore in depth the varied and unconventional lives of expat women in East Asia. Their stories go far beyond the stereotypical image of a trailing spouse at brunch, and give voice to a population that is often sidelined. They are artists, filmmakers, singers, teachers, professionals, mothers, wives, and diplomats. Their stories explore love, loss, and identity. Bookworm Literary Festival welcomes three of the contributors — Jocelyn Eikenburg, Kaitlin Solimine,Ember Swift, and Edna Zhou — who, together, will formally launch this unique anthology in Beijing. Moderated by Reuters reporter Megha Rajagopalan. This event is at iQiyi.
